Endless Celebration 03:31
lyrics
buy track
And whatever you do and whatever you say Revolution is here, it'll show you the way I wanna live a life based on laws of nature And whatever you do and whatever you say I wanna know if you're comin' out to play And I wanna know that nobody shies away On this big day of the endless celebration And if I may watch your helmet moon go round & round & round I don't mind what they think, I don't care where they go Just as long as you lot carry on with the show I wanna be the doctor's impatient patient I don't care what they think, I don't mind where they go 8-colour rainbows shine Their frowns upon you We're depending on you

In The Name Of 03:37

effervescent mystifying temperamental clarifying i'd keep trying further in the name of love luminous and underrated by the latins confiscated almost dated glowing in the name of love i got to run away from that girl winter's favourite seldom drinking slowly growing but quick-thinking always blinking efforts in the name of love disillusioned may i wake up the day our handwritings break up she's a fake but so real in the name of love sleeping beauty please don't listen what i'm tryin' to say's i'm missin' our imaginary kissing in the name of love

Goodbye 04:06
lyrics
buy track
I fell in love with a brand new morning Lazy sun discreetly yawning I fell so bad, it's a miracle I walk I lost my head to a new desire Salty lips, eyes like fire I lost myself now I can hardly talk It should be easy to change your mind, drop the past, leave it behind It should be easy but all she does is cry I guess this is goodbye I fell in love with the queen of passion Hoping pain is out of fashion I fell so deep, touched the sand under the sea I lost my heart to the way she kissed me Humble enough to say she's missed me I fell so hard that I can barely see There between what is good or right she lost track, I lost my sight Somewhere between the fairytale and the lie

Guiding Star 03:39
lyrics
buy track
I'm two months awake and these pills will not help me I know it's a mistake but the last time you held me A million angels shook and stirred my wisdom I'm two months asleep but my dream never changes It's me following you and those merciless angels Who lead your biggest fan inside your kingdom (Please don't take my freedom away) Stay where you are You could never leave You're my guiding star I'm just two months old, I was born with a weakness Only through you I'll reach treasures and secrets And promised lands I've only seen in movies

bury me with tons of iron and plastic screw my mind so bad i never make it back again handle with elegance and style cruelty defines your usual behaviour you take "mental" out of sentimental, put it back again at once and mix with elegance and style well you often seem like yeah you often seem to treat me like your dolls releasing me from pain and fear but it always feels like yes it always feels like climbing waterfalls so let me fall and disappear you used to say that jesus comes before everything yet i have called his name in vain one thousand times tonight oh god my life it seems so vile i need a fix, i need a reason to get by the heavy loads of shit i'm trying to kill with endless cigarettes burning with elegance and style

No Sleepers 02:59
lyrics

woke at 4am it's 7 now i'm still in bed i feel ugly no calls to disturb my peace no lager in my fridge and no sleepers i wish your photograph could talk to me and keep me warm but nothing's ever new in this place pet hates bank rates nothing seems important anymore like a bad dream life's too short to waste on making friends or making love lacking passion i wish your photograph could talk to me and keep me warm just like the days we used to be in love and smell the rain and is it much to ask you to leave him and come back here? you won't believe how much i've changed!

December Song 03:40
lyrics

1st of december and the stars were strangely kind wonder what they had in mind 4th of december, heavy smoking drove me blind failed to value all your sides too soon i'd find 8th of december, you disturbed my privacy but it's you i need to see three nights later, in my room you play your songs and i feel, for sure, where this old heart belongs there's a child on a cliff there's a boy with a spliff and no friends at all to get by in a century of lies you're the biggest surprise till hello becomes a goodbye december 20, i'm still thinking of your voice harmonies leave me no choice but time passes plenty and it changes everything come and fill me, i'm the lord of every ring

met you on a bright october friday how could i know you were comin' my way said to myself "she's looking really nice" could i re-make it up after all those stupid lies? knew i was eleven years older and as the air just kept a-going colder you introduced me to your anaemic friend and your friend had your name and i thought "this is the end" one dream crashed into another and i wished i was your little brother playin' on the floor of your little sunny room put some music on before my heart goes boom! my head is spinning around looks like i'll never come down
